Sound Sleepers.
Residents In the vicinity of Tenth and
streets were startled short time after
midnight of Tuesday by noise made by
some one kicking on one Of the doors in the
neighborhood. The trouble proved to be
made by young man, who, coming home
to the house OF his aunt in an intoxicated
state, was locked out. He rang the bell
fufiously, and upon being told he could
not come In In his condition, proceeded TO
kick the door down. This he succeeded In
doing, the inmates Of the house screaming
with fright. He ran In, got his overcoat,
and was about to leave when an officer ap-
peared around the corner. Taking the
young man for burglar, he called to him
to stop, but instead the tipsy culprit took
to his heels The officer fired at him, but
did not hit the fugitive. By this time
every window in the neighborhood was
raised and heads appeared In night caps.
The young man has not since returned
home, and the police are on the lookout
for him.

but had to give it up in the first half of
the fifth on account of the rain. For
three innings neither side scored. In
the fourth also St. Paul failed to tally.
Milwaukee scored one in the last half of
the inning. Forster led off with hit,
and was advanced base on Williams
base on balls. Forster played off
second, and Duryea threw the ball
to Crooks in time to catch
him, but the latter muffed it. MaSkrey
hit the ball to Duryea, who threw it to
third, but Pickett let the ball go by him
and Forster scored. In the fifth inning
Sowders and Duryea had gone

a little longer, but were not backed up

Indecency in Photographs.

NCW IOIh Suus-
The cigarette men are no longer lead
ing the craze for improper pictures. A
walk up the west side of Broadway from
TWenty-third street to Thirty-frst street
will satisfy any one that the photog-
raphers have taken the business in
their own hands and are distancing the
tobacco and liquor men greatly. The
windows of the photograph stores and
even of the art stores and the places
where albums are displayed are filled
with photographs of females in abso-
lutely the least apparel that the law will
permit in any form, except paintings or
statuary. Some of these have the names
of titled ladies beneath them, some are
portraits of actresses, and some are
what are called fancy pictures. The
last store of all, near Thirty-first street,
displays two of the shameful photo
graphs by which the hard-worked and
pOorly-paid cigarette makers were scam
dalized, and which the Sun drove out of
a great majority of the tobacco shops.
These pictures now appear quite modest
beside the worst of all, though, for they
